ATMOSPHERE LYRICS - The Things That Hate Us

"The Things That Hate Us"



See I come from a time where they didn't put rear view mirrors on passenger sides of vehicles



And this is for those that still drink malt liquor

Put the poison in your body just to pass out quicker

When death calls best believe it's gonna get all emotional

Because I ain't goin' to hell without my menthols

Damn cable TV got me trapped in

Girls actin' dumb and cops beatin' black men

Overfill, overkill, tryin' to deal

Call the toll free and order my some diet pills

Got me looking at the sugar in the Kool-Aid that you made

You need to chase it down with some toothpaste

Still stuck to the simple things yep the struggle in between a couple of krispy kremes

I have to ask if you could pass that half and half to get my coffee back on track

Big ups to all the carbonated hiccups the energy drinks and the suicide big gulps

Gonna find happiness in the fast food

Supersize the triple bypass heart attack too

Distract you with these colorful tattoos to cover up the fact that we feel like bad news



[Chorus]

We love the things that hate us

Push snooze again girl I don't want to wake up

America the beautiful that's how she played us

Wasn't that cute it must have been her make up

Trying to grab everything that she gave us

Just take it back in the math on that pay stub

Lookin' at the neighbors like wait up

We love the things that hate us



Pain killers help find some feeling

Crack the vic in half just to break the time sealant

Take it by yourself on the living room carpet

Do a little bump just to clean your apartment

? I've seen your wife she's not the true finest?

I understand why you like to pay them prostitutes

Strip clubs gun shops oh Jesus right next to the liquor store for your convenience

Everybody say ho for the cuervo

You can drive if you promise to be careful

Turn the radio up and light a doobie

And keep acting like life is like a movie

This is for those needles you share because

Those after school TV specials is too square

Cook the coke for your own consumption

? All some joe joe dems? In old school

What's your function

As American as herpes and hot dogs

Got lost between the mustard and the hot sauce

Unprotected sex with that one you just met

You ain't even got all your hep shots yet



[Chorus]
